HALAL — SCREEN DOES NOT PASSstock

Is TEM Halal?

AI precision medicine, genomics and clinical-data software — a generally permissible healthcare business whose current debt/assets screen fails.

What You Should Know

Tempus provides AI-enabled precision medicine, genomic diagnostics, clinical data and decision-support software. Its March 31, 2026 Form 10-Q reports assets of $2,135.091 million, debt and operating leases of $1,318.532 million, cash of $521.170 million, receivables of $308.599 million and quarterly revenue of $348.116 million. Debt/assets is 61.76%, liquidity/assets is 24.41% and receivables plus cash/assets is 38.86%; the asset-based debt screen fails. The filing reports $3.866 million of interest income, approximately 1.11% of quarterly revenue, while no universal prohibited-revenue numerator is disclosed.

Business-activity disclosure

Tempus provides AI-enabled precision medicine, genomic diagnostics, clinical data and software. These healthcare activities are generally permissible, while customer, clinical and data-use allocation remains qualitative.

Limitation: The filing does not allocate revenue into a universal prohibited-activity numerator by customer use, clinical workflow or data-license purpose.

Purification

Tempus discloses $3.866 million of interest income, but no scholar-specific purification percentage or universal prohibited-revenue numerator is provided.

Inputs, assumptions and primary sources
  • Amounts are USD millions from Tempus AI's March 31, 2026 Form 10-Q.
  • Debt includes the $199.279 million convertible promissory note, $100.000 million revolving credit facility, $204.624 million long-term debt, $729.267 million convertible senior notes and $85.362 million of operating-lease liabilities.
  • Cash and cash equivalents are $521.170 million. The $117.902 million marketable-equity-securities balance is not treated as an interest-bearing security.
  • Accounts receivable, net are $308.599 million and first-quarter revenue is $348.116 million.
  • The filing separately discloses $3.866 million of interest income, approximately 1.11% of quarterly revenue.
  • Precision medicine, diagnostics, clinical data and decision-support software are generally permissible, but no universal prohibited-revenue numerator is disclosed.

This is a reproducible financial screen, not a fatwa. A failed total-assets screen can coexist with a pass under a market-cap methodology. ZakatInvest keeps the qualitative assessment separate so numerical thresholds do not erase material context.
